Biography
Diego Murillo Bejarano was born in Tulua, Valle del Cauca, Colombia in 1961, and he used to lead the Medellin Cartel's militia wing before he decided to leave the cartel after Gerardo Moncada and Fernando Galeano's murders in 1992. Murillo protected Moncada's widow Judy Moncada and her brother Jaime, and he advised against underestimating Pablo. Jaime arrogantly refused to listen and continued working at his coke lab in Medellin, where he would be shot in the forehead by Escobar himself after Escobar, Ricardo Prisco, and some sicarios raided the lab. Internal vendettas led to Murillo forming the "Los Pepes" paramilitary and then the AUC, and he was in talks with the government when he was accused of murdering a deputy and arrested.
